BoxLunch PTASM Review

Part time assistant manager

Recommend

Business Outlook

Pros

I love coming into work today knowing that I can talk about the things that I love and share those stories with guests who also share the same interests. I always make it a point to make connections and complete the sale in a friendly way. BoxLunch is a great environment and upper management are always there to support you, too.

Cons

It is difficult to get a raise once you are in. As a manager, the wage could be better. Bonuses are given out to best-performing stores in the district, but it doesn't boost the morale of managers who work 30 hours a week and still get paid under what they should.

Fun Environment

Pros

You're surrounded by pop culture items constantly, always knowing what's new to come (perfect job for a collector). It's a fun environment, you basically get paid to talk about your interests with customers and the managers and coworkers are very understanding and accommodating. The benefits are amazing; 30% off both in store and online, as well as 40% off at Hot Topic due to BoxLunch being its sister company.

Cons

If you have trouble talking to people/social anxieties, you're forced into talking with every single customer that walks into the store. Not just the basic "how are you?" "how can I help you?", but you have to genuinely start a conversation with them (it's daunting at first but it honestly helped me open up and be more social and outgoing in the long run).
